Invoking inbuilt script through custom script

[ashwinimore]

Hi,

Is it possible to invoke an inbuilt script e.g. export xsd script from a custom Jscript ?

Thanks,
Ashwini

Do you mean the function to export an xsd, or an actual script that exports an xsd?

I don't think the export xsd function is available from the API.

If you want to execute script from a script, that is possible, but not an easy task.

See https://github.com/GeertBellekens/Enterprise-Architect-Add-in-Framework/blob/master/EAAddinFramework/EASpecific/Script.cs for a working C# example.

I have my own custom script, I want to generate XSD by passing the schema name from the model
same as we do by using the generate schema option.
Is it possible to do, if yes could you please suggest how to do it?
Or is there any alternate way to do it?
I am using EA 13.

Thanks,
Ashwini

As I said, the generate xml schema functionality is not exposed by the API so you can't call that using a script.

The API  and all of its functions is documented here: http://sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/13.0/automation/reference.html

Actually, it's really easy:

!INC [Script Group Name].[Script Name]

It's easier but not a requirement if the script being included is only defining functions that you can explicitly call.

As I said, the generate xml schema functionality is not exposed by the API so you can't call that using a script.

Thank You for your response.
I am able to generate the XSD using Repository.GetProjectInterface().GenerateXSD

I stand corrected 
I guess I was thinking about the import xsd feature
